99% of internet traffic and intercontinental communications are carried via submarine cables. To offer high-quality and enriched connectivity around the world, we are ambitious in our submarine investments, which amount to more than 40 submarine cables and international consortia. This represents 450,000 kilometers of submarine cable, enough to circumnavigate the planet ten times over.

Through Orange Marine, we also fund, lay, maintain, and repair submarine cables, with 230,000 km of fiber optic submarine cables laid to date.

Orange 5G is now available in 8 major ski resorts: Montgenèvre (05), Tignes (73), Morzine (74), Val d'Isère (73), Chamonix (74), Les Arcs 1800 (73), Isola 2000 (06) and Alpe d'Huez (38).
With Orange 4G still available in more than 140 mountain resorts, holidaymakers can stay in touch with their loved ones and share beautiful snowy panoramas.

For the 23rd year running, we’re broadcasting the Tour around the world and guaranteeing the smooth running of this iconic event. More than 50 experts and technicians are involved at each stage and 450 technicians and supervisors work in the back office. 34 km of cables are deployed at the finish line during the event.
We are also strengthening local network coverage for the regions hosting the Tour de France, with 4G coverage in 637 municipalities and 30 host towns and a further 10 host towns benefiting from 5G. We’re also boosting connectivity via 8 4G and 5G mobile relays. This year we’re excited to provide network coverage to the first ever women’s Tour.

Since April 2022, 92% of the 10,000-hectare industrial port area of Le Havre is covered with 3.5 GHz 5G.
5G brings an unprecedented quality of service to businesses in the industrial port area, while helping them develop new uses with increased security.
